The map the immigration guy drew for meThe map the immigration guy drew for meThe map the immigration guy drew for me

to explain how to get to Niagara Falls. Clear, concise and neat no?
Yeah so I made it here...bit of a strange place. First the airport Immigration officer spent 25 mins with me, 23 of which he told me what I should do in the 23 hours I had in Toronto. He recommended hotels, casinos, Niagara falls, places to eat, even hinted at a strip bar before stamping my passport and telling me to fuck off. We also had an argument about how Argentina was on the west/east coast of South America. I was right so he got pissed off..

I then decided the airport was too crappy to sleep in, absolutely nothing in it, so got a bus, which suddenly stopped and dumped us on a train to the city centre. City centre = high rise buildings + noshopsfoodplacesoranyothersignsofcivilisation. After walking around for a bit, and chatting with taxi drivers who didnt seem to know anything, I overheard a girl asking for directions to a hostel. I then followed her (at a discreet distance so as to not creep her out) and found one...which was full...so got directions to another...and so on and so forth until I landed up at this computer.

I'm bloody tired, its like 4AM in London, so gonna figure out whether I can managed Niagara falls tomorrow, and then head off to bed.

Hello Sid!!!!
Haha Sid this is hilarious...yeah why is it Canadians are always over-friendly? Well actually I can think of one who isn't....you might know who I mean. :-P Also quite funny, the old Ed Board minutes I found in my inbox: "Windows are opened, because of the rise in temperature in the room - is this a natural occurrence or due to the anger of our Executive Editor?" Haha...you can tell I'm bored. Hope you're having an awesome time. Miss you!
